  • Publication number: 20250350126
    Abstract: This invention advances power grid operational planning by introducing a mid-term scheduling framework for integrated hydro-wind-solar systems that accounts for heterogeneous daily load profiles across multiple receiving-end power grids. The proposed approach utilizes an adaptive variable-step search algorithm to segment loads into peak, flat, and valley intervals. By synthesizing five key metrics, including mean daily load, daily load factor, peak-valley differential ratio, load rates during peak/valley periods, and timing of peak/valley occurrences, the method accurately captures region-specific load patterns and peak-shaving demands. This enables a refined reconstruction of load profiles of receiving-end power grids. A nested multi-temporal scheduling model that couples medium- and short-term horizons to simultaneously maximize total energy production and minimize transmission imbalances among power grids.

  • Patent number: 11201331
    Abstract: There is provided a positive electrode material for a lithium-sulfur battery, including a sulfur-rich polymer and graphene, wherein an internal structure of the sulfur-rich polymer is an interpenetrating network structure; the graphene is doped in the sulfur-rich polymer; a particle size of the sulfur-rich polymer is 100-300 meshes; and the number of flake layers of the graphene is 2-10. A preparation method includes: crushing a prepared sulfur-rich polymer into powder, adding a solvent to obtain a solution, performing sufficient stirring processing; performing ultrasonic dispersion on graphene in a solvent to generate a suspension; and mixing the two solutions, then continuing to perform ultrasonic dispersion and stirring, and finally removing the solvent and drying a product to obtain the positive electrode material for a lithium-sulfur battery.
